The common Christian sentiment
that the theatre is a school Of vice is
not mistaken one, as they who know
best easily testify. Even when it does
not teach what it is thus fitted for
teaching, it exerts an influence that is
pernicious, so that there always will
be, as there always has been, a conflict
between it and real piety. This is
true of the theatre as it has existed
and has been managed. The ideal in
stitution need not be considered. But
it is not alone in the great cities that
the vice is cultivated. Since travel
has become so easy, all kinds of tenth
rate troupes are carried about the coun-
try, so that every town large enough
to gather an audience is visited. Thou
sands of dollars-more than is given to
support the gospel-are carried away
during season from many communi-
ties by theatrical companies whose in
fiuence is wholly debasing.

and by the enhanced efficiency Of the
eity's fire protection appliances and re-
sources, the insurance agents may be-
fore long see their way clear to modify
rates to the mutual advantage Of their
companies and property owners. For
the present, it does not appear that
they can recede from the rates agreed
upon without mourning the disapproba-
ton of the companies that they repre-
sent. But, with the wooden built area
reduced, and happily, year or two
without severe losses from fire, they
may be able to report state Of things

THE REoRGANIzED BENCH.

The reconstructed Supreme Court
originated in law that failed to make
any provision for securing the objects
desired in reconstruction. That law is
therefore not the least conspicuous Of
the various pieces Of wooden-headed
legislation emanating from the late As
sembly of office-holders. There are
now FIVE Judges fer the country to sup
port, for despatching business that
three easily overlook before. All that
the country has for the additional ex-
pense is whatever advantage there may
be in having two more judges to sit in
banco. With such division Of labor
and jurisdiction as should have been
made at the same time that the judi
ciary was enlarged, there might have
been secured advantages worth all Of
the cost AS it is, however, the Law
was framed so as to render the Court
an illegal body until the two additional
judges we're appointed. Therefore,
whatever feeling Of resentment the pub
lie may entertain toward the law
makers for their bungling should not
be manifested in any degree toward the
new incumbents of the bench. So
lsng as the nation chooses incapable
legislators it should be prepared to
accept gracefully any sort Of laws that
they make.

THE cITYs HEALTH.

There are some startling figures in
the mortuary report for December.
The deaths were seventy-two as Gem
pared with forty-nine in the CORE
spending month last previous year, or
an Increase Of over forty-six per cent.
OF the ssventy-two died forty-two we're
Hswaiians, CT 6fty-eight per cent, and
thirteen Of the deaths we're Of children
under one year old. 1t has often been
remarked that the great fire Of April
last purified the slums, but the Excess
sive mortality Of the past month would
signify that the city is in more un-
wholesome condition now than year
ago. The mortality for December last
is by far the greatest in five years, the
nearest approach to its being sixty-three
deaths in 1883. Nobody who goes
about the streets in the city and sub
urbs need be told that the sanitary
